Had to return mine

Hi, for most of you it can be a great tv set. Just few issues that made me return it and you may have to be aware of it:
- very limited connectivity, small separate box with just a few HDMIs, USB, cable but nothing outside of basic.
- Menu very basic, no expert settings, few adjustments you can make to picture settings, but really few only. I could not believe comparing to OLED LG expert menu.
- This set it BRIGHT, after 1 hour my eyes heart.
- Remote is good looking but not functional, only few buttons to control, more like a joystick.
- at 65", if you sit less than 12 feet from it, you will get dizzy. At our 8 feet distance, it felt like sitting in the first row at the movie theater, turning head from side to side all the time to follow the action. Not a TVs fault.
-when watching non HD source like older DVDs, VCR etc. SUHD had problems, grainy, blurry, really bad, OLED can handle standard definition much better.
- After switching to OLED now I understand why it cost more money comparing to SUHD. You compare Ford to Lexus.

This dishwasher accommodates up to 14 place settings and features NSF certified sanitization for eliminating up to 99.9% of bacteria. Five wash cycles and 3 wash options help ensure dishes are thoroughly cleaned.

This was an exchange ( TG for extended warranty) of a Samsung model with great display, bells and whistles but no way to wash dishes. This Bosh model is a bit simpler, less cycles, small display but DOES washes dishes like a commercial dishwasher. No matter how dirty dishes you stick in, all comes shiny and dry. Extremely efficient and whisper quiet. We get plenty of space for family of 5. Was installed by BB crew, you need an install kit. Highly recommended after 4 months of heavy use. Wife is finally happy ;-)
What's great about it: Effective and quiet
What's not so great: Nothing really

What a great sound!

Over the weekend I spent some time in BB testing outdoor speakers ( each brand set up on the wall next to each other and hooked to the same Yamaha amplifier/CD). Being a former musician, my ear is very sensitive to the sound quality and I was really astonished to hear Insignia speakers for $78 blowing away Bose and Klipsh for $300 range. Don't get fooled with marketing hype, they sounded way worse. Juts hear it for yourself at any BB store.
What's great about it: Sound quality and price
What's not so great: nothing really, all good.

What’s better than relaxing in your back garden, by the patio or pool? Listening to your favorite music while you’re there, and enjoying deep, full stereo sound. With the SoundTouch outdoor speaker system with 251 speakers, you can stream the Internet radio station that you recently discovered through TuneIn and your music library outside—all at the touch of a button. With your home Wi-Fi network, you’re ready to make hanging out even more fun. Our outdoor speakers are uniquely engineered to give you full stereo performance across a much wider space. Bose 251 environmental speakers deliver our best performance outdoors from two 2.5" full-range drivers and a 5.25" woofer.

Thoroughly clean your dishes with this 24" dishwasher that features 6 wash cycles, a hard-food disposer and quiet operation for added convenience. Have questions about this product? Ask Mr. Samsung, fellow shoppers and Best Buy staff. Share your answers.
Overall
1 out of 5
1 out of 5Very Disappointed after 6 months of trying
By Consumer00
This model simply does not clean dishes. Its not a specific unit. We have had this repaired several times, replaced and it simply does not clean well. Plus the cycle time is 2+ hours...The only time I can run it is in the night so that I can empty it next morning. Racks don't slide in smoothly and after six months, it still stinks.
To be fair, it is quiet, has nice features and looks good. But if you are looking for a DW that cleans, THIS is not it.

Samsung 24" Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher - Stainle
March 9, 2012
Faulty design for Samsung- they need to stick with TVs. Thanks god for extended warranties. I had to use it several times during 2 years I had this unit. From the get go, wife complained dishes were never fully clean. We tried all cycles, always had to wash few pieces of glassware manually... what's the point of paying almost $1000 for a dishwasher and washing dishes in the sink ? Clips supporting upper tray broke all the time, I used wires to hold it in place before technician exchanged them. They lasted maybe 4 months and broke again. Back to wires. After final break down, BB offered new unit since parts were not available- full credit and I can buy new unit. Yes, you have guessed: I am not coming even close to SAMSUNG, getting BOSH as per technician advise. Don't get fooled by its sleek look and tech features- design of the whole SAMSUNG line of dishwashers is faulty, they are new to appliances and learn from own mistakes. Don't fall into trap of having full line of the same brand appliances in the kitchen, go with Bosh dishwasher and you won't even notice the difference minus the headache of repairs. Read all the comments of disappointed consumers. Go with the brand who has been making appliances for decades: Bosh, KitchenAid, Electrolux etc. Buyers, be ware of Samsung Dishwashers!!!
